UNSPSC 85552425: Replacement of left vitreous with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left vitreous with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 08R537Z

UNSPSC 85552425 Replacement of left vitreous with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contracting activity submitted for this code. The code itself describes a specific ophthalmic surgical procedure involving vitreous replacement, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out programs for employee health plans, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth. None of these solicitations involve ophthalmic surgery or vitreous replacement procedures. The mismatch suggests either a data tagging error in the source records or a fundamental disconnect between the code's clinical scope and how state and local procurement systems are categorizing medical service contracts.

The issuing bodies across the recent opportunities include city retirement offices, county human resources departments, state transportation agencies, county health systems, and juvenile probation departments—a mix spanning municipal, county, and state levels across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Given the absence of opportunities materially related to the code's stated scope, no representative recent opportunities in the vitreous-replacement commodity are identifiable in the source data, and no meaningful geographic or sectoral concentration analysis for this specific procedure code can be drawn from the records provided.
